I just installed version 11.3. I opened the documentation center at 200% zoom, and it's now a total mess (and I can't click on anything):

mess

I guess zooming/scrolling is broken? I assume this is a bug?

Update:

It was suggested below that this would fix the issue:

Needs["PacletManager`"]
PacletInstall["SystemDocsUpdate1"]

Unfortunately, now when the zoom is set to over 100%, it looks alright and I can scroll right, but I can't scroll all the way to the left:

still a mess

I'm shocked that WRI beta testers/QA people missed this.

  • $\begingroup$ I cannot reproduce this behavior on Win 10 (64 Bit). But I grant you, that zooming behavior is rather strange, e.g. the gaps increase while the font size stays the same. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ On macOS 10.13.3 zoom does not work, vertical scroll works but there is no horizontal scroll bar. Magnification adjustment works to see full page width. $\endgroup$

There is a known issue with the landing page when magnification is set to something other than 100%. We are working on paclet updating the landing page to fix this, so it should be hopefully fixed automagically in the not too distant future. Individual pages should be OK if you just type into the search bar.

This issue should now be fixed automatically for users within 3 days. If you want to get the fix immediately, run

Needs["PacletManager`"]
PacletInstall["SystemDocsUpdate1"]
